Abstract

In this paper we present an application that helps to motivate the elderly in maintaining an independent healthy life style. With this application elderly people don't need to memorize the details - - they will be informed round the clock about their diet and exercise schedules-freeing their memory for something else. The application was designed and implemented in a participatory manner. The early results from the evaluation show that the application has potential in enabling the elderly to maintain a healthy life style.
